instantiation in C#

[BioHazard90]

class MyProgram
{
static void Main()
{
int[] integers; // declare array
integers = new int[10]; // size array
}
}

In which line is the array actually instantiated?

 

[jmeckley]

before the line int[] integers; nothing exists. after that the variable exists (instantiated?), but is null, a value has not been assigned. after integers = new int[10]; the variable has been initialized.

The new keyword is responsible for instantiation.

In your code, initialization happens on the 2nd line. Class level fields however takes their default values.
